Here is an excerpt from the article:
Croatia, Casa Oraj, Lovran, Sleeps 8:
Casa Oraj’s huge terrace, which overlooks the Adriatic, is crying out for a party.
A renovated stone farmhouse set high on a hill among chestnut and olive trees, rooms are basic but clean – not that you’ll notice much since open-air massage can be arranged, and afterwards a dip in the pool belonging to Villa Astra below (it has the same owner) is great for shaking off a sunbathing fug.
The caves in the hills below are not just for the brave – there are ropes to guide your way – but make sure you don’t do it after sampling Casa Oraj’s wine cellar. 00385 5129 4604, lovranske-vile.com, from £50pp per week. Nearest airport: Pula – Read the whole article here
